What is Christmas if not a time to reflect on holidays gone by? Because PC's classes ended 10 days ago, and because UK doesn't play again until Saturday (O.M.Geeeee!), I find myself with a LOT of time to reflect, so some of my memories may wind up here on the blog. I'll start with this one:

Behold my favorite 7 year old when she was 2 1/2. It was 2005, and Sissy's family and I were all out in Midway, KY, seeing Santa and doing some shopping. As you'll see from the video below, the hula class Lizzie Gray and I took in Hawaii was hardly her first turn on the dance floor. Check out baby Bess as she checks out this rockin' Rudolph. Even then, she had better hair than I could ever hope to.

Oh, and I'm not sure where she got all that rhythm. The hula-hoop swivel hips, however, are most definitely a gift from her grandmother.
